do i have an obsession?

Question

i am 16, nearly 17, and recently all i can think of is boys. i know most girls do, but its become really seriousl lately. my grades are dropping, i cant concentrate in class, all me an my friends do is talk about them; we swoon at the hot ones and laugh t the ugly ones. i really dont know what to do. its ruining all of my guy-relationships with male friends at school, because i just cant look beyond their looks and 'potential' as a boyfriend. the weird thing is...i am still a virgin. i dont obsess about them in a sexual way though, not at all, it's more about their appearance/clothes/style etc. i am a sucker for a pretty boy. is there anyway i can cool this off a bit, without turning into a lesbian or something?

Answer 1

It's called puberty, your hormones are talking to you. No, it's not an obsession, but you have to control it if it's affecting your grades. Sounds like you need to start dating.
